This video is awesome on so many levels. I just felt like sharing it because it makes me really happy to watch. Kids are often natural trainers with great timing and mechanics, and it is such a good thing to encourage them to interact with animals in this respectful way because it teaches empathy–something the world really needs right now.

As you see, this stuff isn’t just for the dogs!
